Love the book. Now I want the hat.

[DiamondDog]

Might sound like a strange question but that hat that Dan Harrington is wearing on the front cover of his Harrington On Hold ‘Em books – that’s the Boston Red Sox, right?
(I’m from the UK, and I don’t know much about UK sport, even, so I had to Google “baseball teams” to work out it was the Red Sox).

Questions:

Anyone know where I can get a hat exactly like Dan’s? I WANT ONE! HOH is quickly becoming my favourite 2+2 book of them all. It’s excellent. (And yes, I realise I’m not exactly the first person round here to think so.) Having a hat just like Dan would be kind of neat. Some will think it’s sad, and I say yes, it probably is, but I still want one.

The Sox official site doesn’t show the exact same hat.

Second question – the hat is green, which struck me as kind of odd for a team called the Red Sox. I assume that’s an Irish connection? Lots of Irish people in Boston?

I’m a noob. I see it as my duty to ask the daft questions that others fear to voice.

Many Thanks for your help.

And also, thanks to all those whose enthusiasm for HOH prompted me to get hold of a copy in the first place.
